SimCity intro trailer shows off the different city types and the system layers powering them

It’s mere months till SimCity will be in our hands and that harsh fact is made all the harsher by the latest trailer. Showing off the intro to the game drives home just how good a job Maxis have done of showing the variety on show in cities. Yes, there are all the function buildings – the police stations, the courts, the shopping centres and the homes – but there doesn’t seem to be a repetition of models, the cities seem to be organically different.

Check out the trailer below to see what I mean.

Maybe it’s just the camera that refuses to stop moving but look at how each of the cities seem to vary, not just from each other but within themselves.

Why can’t 5 March come about sooner? SimCity is easily one of my most anticipated games of the 2013.
